Rivian drops 7.6% as the 50-week average turns the bounce away and the decline resumes

October 02, 2026

Our view last week

After last week's range break, Rivian stock recovered 3.2%, and the bounce stalled right below a band of moving averages between the 15.6 and 15.9 areas, which had already pushed it back during the week. On technical analysis the picture stays bearish, with money flow negative for 9 weeks; the price action, though, shows an indecisive weekly candle and a decline losing steam. The sell signal is still waiting for its confirmation to play out.

This week's summary

Last week's bounce died at the 50-week moving average, in the 15.6 area: Rivian stock fell 7.6% and is back just above its 90-day low, in the 14 area. On technical analysis the weekly picture stays bearish, with price action printing lower highs on the daily chart and money flow negative for 10 weeks. The Sell signal has found its stride again; among US stocks, though, this trade setup still rates as high-risk for a fresh short on our model.
